Mailmerge with different page requirements

[craig friend via OfficeKB.com]

I am merging data from an excel document with forms created within Word.
When I attempt to output this to a new document or directly to the printer I
receive the same results. The desired result is to have each record(set of 5
pages) print with a separate cover and end sheet. I know that I can set my
printer up with different paper in separate trays but the program(Word)
doesn't seem to differentiate a new cover for each document. It prints the
very first page(of 45 for example) with the proper cover and the last page(of
45 for example)with the proper end sheet. This occurs if I merge to a
document or to print. If anyone has any suggestions on how to repeat a 5
page document over and over with a different cover and end sheet in a
automated way, I would appreciate it.

If you execute the merge to a new document and with that document active,
you run a macro containing the following code, it will print the "document"
for each record as a separate print job.

Here it is:

Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Sections.Count
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintFromTo, From:="s" & i, To:="s" & i
Next i

Doug,

They keep clipping the info. I managed to get the first three lines and part
of the 4th.

If there is somewhere that you can point me to that might have this
information available, I would appreciate it!!

Doug...

I used the code that was present and it worked fine. I just assumed, because
the thread stated it had data stripped, that it wasn't complete.

Thanks again for all your help!
